The book "Child Labour in Tripura causes and consequences" is mainly based on Ph.D. research work done by Dr. Ratan Majumder under the guidance of Professor Dr Chandrika Basu Majumder, Dean, Faculty of Arts and Commerce, Tripura University (A central University). The book "Child Labour in Tripura causes and consequences" by Dr Majumder tries to provide an insight into the status of implementation of child labour laws, rules and regulations and analyse the root causes of the incidence of child labour in different sectors of Tripura. This book constitutes a well-off contribution to this issue of countrywide significance.
